CRRCsim was abandoned!

There has been no work on this game for quite some time or it was left in an unfinished state and there is no support by the developer or anyone else.

CRRCsim

CRRCsim is a model-airplane flight simulation program. Using it, you can learn how to fly model aircraft, test new aircraft designs, and improve your skills by practicing on your computer.

It rules! The flight model is very realistic. The flight model parameters are calculated based on a 3D representation of the aircraft. Stalls are properly modelled as well. Model control is possible with your own rc transmitter, or any input device such as joystick, mouse, keyboard ...

Comments

This simulator really captures the feeling of RC gliding in a mountain updraft.

There is a small amount of setup to get the most out of it, here is a Rough Guide.

-------------------------
Rough setup guide.

Download the game
Download a mountain from the Sceneries section on the left of the webpage ( this is a good start : Col des Faïsses-F3F -- http://joel.lienard.free.fr/crrcsim/faisses2.zip )
Unzip that scenery data in to the scenery directory of the game
Start the game

Press Esc , choose Options then Location and select the mountain

Launch a glider and float in the updraft and thermals.

Middle mouse restarts the simulation, left and right mouse unpauses and pauses . Scroll wheel controls the throttle on powered aircraft . Esc -> Help -> Keys has more .

There are many other gliders , powered aircraft and 2 helicopters . ( The Crossfire or Supra is a decent starting glider )
